Ingredients:

Serving

2 lbs lean ground beef
8 -10 slices white bread, broken into small 1/2 inch pieces (or you can use rolls
2 eggs, slightly beaten
1/2 tsp garlic powder (or to taste)
1 tsp italian seasoning (or to taste)
2 tsp parsley flakes (or to taste)
1/4-1/2 cup grated parmesan cheese (or locatelli)
1 -2 tsp salt
1/4-1/2 tsp black pepper
olive oil (for frying

Directions:

Mix all ingredients gently in a large bowl until well combined.
Roll meatballs 1 1/2- 1 3/4 in diameter.
Heat about 1/4 of oil over medium heat in a large frying pan.
Fry meatballs in oil, rolling frequently, until evenly browned and juices run clear.
Drop meatballs in your favorite sauce (I highly recommend My Mama Iuliucci's Don't Skip a Step Spaghetti Sauce My Mama Iuliucci's Don't Skip a Step Spaghetti Sauce) and let simmer for awhile to flavor sauce or just serve with your favorite pasta and sauce.
Tip: You can also bake or broil these if the frying part is too much of a hassle- I use my broiler pan if I bake them, so the fat drips down and away from the meatballs.
